Removed the need for global variables for sorting leafs and faces

Added an extra face sorting step so we can draw faces in front-to-back order:
- Nodes are traversed front-to-back, leafs are sorted back-to-front
- Leaf faces are collected back-to-front to ensure faces shared between leaves are drawn in the correct order
- Faces to be drawn are then sorted front-to-back and drawn in that order
- This obsoletes the need for any kind of depth calculations, and makes the primitive buffer cutoff work as intended

First pass at leaf-based rendering order:
- Sort leafs first into a linked list, before drawing their faces
- Depth value for faces is determined by the leaf order, OT position is calculated once per leaf
- Removes the need for per-primitive depth calculation & check, so those are removed
- Moved primitive buffer check out of the primitive drawing routines and to the start of each face drawing function
- Triangle drawing routines now only draw a single triangle, no loops involved
- Simplified drawing routines where possible
- Face drawing is still happening in back-to-front order, so this needs another good look at

Added box-frustum test code, used to experiment with more accurate per-leaf bounding box frustum culling.
Not really worth it as it only makes things slower in the end.

Some micro-optimizations in the face drawing code. The PS1 really does favor simple counters over pointer arithmetic.

Added check to backface culling to see if the face is behind the camera.
This will be required if we ditch depth-based culling in favor of leaf-based depth.
Also makes for a nice speed boost in some scenarios already.

Added a fast face drawing routine, which is basically what we had before:
- Faces directly point to vertices using the face vertex buffer
- Draw faces as quad strips from the original face data, without tessellation

Some reorganization of face drawing code; allow better separation between drawing methods, and require the "enable texturing" check only once ahead of drawing.

Small tweaks:
- Math functions return results in 32-bit int, cast back to short is done only where necessary
- Changed GTE screen distance to obtain an exact 90 degree horizontal FOV in 4:3 mode

Realized we can include the UV offsets into the UVs stored in the preprocessed map file, so we don't need to add those at runtime. Easy performance win.

Made polygon building faster by checking ahead of time if we have enough primitive buffer space, instead of checking it per polygon.
Also the primitive buffer management is now all done through inline functions.

Implemented backface culling per face, by adding plane and center point fields to the face struct and checking the plane's normal against the camera vector to the center point.
This eliminates the need for per-polygon normal clipping and reduces the amount of redundant vertex copying, for a measurable speed boost.

Fixes to make things work on real hardware again:
- Struct pointers need to be 32-bit aligned, otherwise the PS1 will crash
- For this purpose, some structs have been padded to make them a multiple of 4 bytes in size
- Vector data needs to be copied into scratch RAM at a 32-bit aligned address

Debugging work:
- Load map data using a macro, so I can easily change the implementation for all data chunks.
- Implemented a visdata function that loads all 1's, so that every leaf will be drawn.
- Point-to-plane distance now uses copies of input vectors. May or may not be faster.
- Fixed fps counter rounding and disabled vsync so we can see the true framerate

Modified triangle rendering code so that it finally works on real hardware.
Not sure why the original method doesn't work, probably some weird limitation on the memory/GTE register subsystems.
This will get rewritten anyway so it doesn't matter much now.
